    Violence et crise environnementale

    Violence: An international journal

    Violence: An international journal lance un appel à contributions sur le thème « Violence et crise environnementale ». Peut-on parler de violence lorsque l'on évoque le déclin de la biodiversité, la destruction de réserves naturelles telles que l'Amazonie ou la Grande Barrière de corail, ou le déversement illégal de déchets poluants ? Dans quelle mesure la chaîne de la violence est-elle liée à la crise environnementale ? Et quels sont les auteurs et les victimes d'une telle violence ? De quelle manière parler de cette violence et de quelle façon peut-elle être légitimée ou condamnée ? Tout cela soulève des questions théoriques, normatives, linguistiques et empiriques qui seront abordées dans ce dossier thématique.

    Tilting

    Urgent issue of The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge

    This special issue, Tilting, seeks to take up themes that have animated the Blackwood’s program and mandate throughout the last several years: questions of connectivity, the challenges of public and private space, community and/in isolation; imperatives to re-structure modes and methodologies of care, including revaluing care work, confronting collective care responsibilities within colonial and capitalist structures, and engaging with the infrastructures, aesthetics, contestations, and radical possibilities of mutual aid; responses to the precarization of art, labour, and life; interest in what modes of knowledge production, circulation, and re-distribution are vital to us now, and how these networks might take new form. These urgencies continue to drive Blackwood programming (and this forthcoming publication), supporting and activating artists, curators, and writers who incite us to be responsive, critical, and answerable.

    L'impact du terrorisme

    Violence: An international journal

    Le terrorisme exerce un impact sur les sociétés qu’il atteint ou qu’il vise. Cet impact peut être ponctuel, ou limité. Mais aujourd’hui, avec l’islamisme radical et le terrorisme d’Al-Qaïda, puis de Daech, le phénomène pèse lourdement, et durablement, même s’il évolue dans le temps. Ses implications politiques concernent d’abord la vie démocratique, la séparation des pouvoirs, et peuvent déboucher sur des dérives et des excès au profit du pouvoir exécutif. Elles peuvent aussi favoriser des acteurs populistes, ou nationalistes, jouer en faveur de l’autoritarisme. L’impact, s’il se prolonge, devient culturel ; les individus modifient leurs habitudes, leurs comportements, ils apprennent par exemple à ne pas être passifs en situation d’acte terroriste, ils se déplacent en intégrant l’hypothèse du terrorisme, ils consomment autrement, ce qui a notamment des implications économiques considérables. Leur appréhension du réel se transforme. Le terrorisme suscite des politiques répressives, mais aussi préventives, ou de sortie de la violence, par exemple sous la forme d’actions de dé-radicalisation.

    Politiques et géopolitiques de la traduction

    Circulation multilingue des savoirs et histoires transnationales de la géographie

    Durant les cinquante dernières années, le champ de l’histoire de la géographie a connu un mouvement de transformation de ces approches, passant d’une lecture par les écoles nationales à une appréhension par la circulation des savoirs et des connaissances à différentes échelles. L’histoire des sciences et de la géographe a ainsi incorporé des concepts tels que « transit », « reseaux », « mobilités», « transferts », « circulations », « centres de calcul », « espaces de connaissance », « géographie des sciences », « mobilité spatiale de la connaissance », « geographies de la lecture et du livre », etc. Plus récemment, un tournant a émergé, qui considère les dynamiques et les nécessités de décoloniser l’histoire de la géographie et de la production de savoirs géographiques. Cette thématique apparaît aujourd’hui comme l’une des plus actives dans le champ de l’histoire de la géographie.

    Transnational Biographies. Destinies at the Crossroads throughout the 20th Century

    This call for papers seeks methodological and case-study perspectives on 20th century biographies, interpreted within a framework of cross-national/transnational connections, surpassing the nation-centered apprehension of history. The contributions should acknowledge and interpret destinies and existences as subjected to transnational spaces and structures, while considering actors as non-state (or multi-state) entities. Moreover, we seek contributions that surpass the “center-periphery” paradigm, focusing on a “horizontal” approach, while also reversing the spotlight from diplomatic and political history towards the social and cultural dimension of it. Editors welcome contributions from different fields of research: history, political science, cultural studies, philosophy, sociology, gender studies or any other related areas of interest.

    ReThinking Europe in Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea Region

    The 11th annual international conference on Nordic and Baltic Studies

    Brexit has just happened and its consequences are not yet fully comprehended. Would the outcome be a return to a status quo ante the Brentry of 1 January 1973 in British-EU relations? Would Britain become a sort of bigger Norway tightly connected to the EU, but yet not fully a member of the united organization? Would Britain really continue to exist as such? Would Scotland, not to mention other territories, emulate London and decide on their own Brexit, this time from the United Kingdom, in order to rejoin the EU? Would actually Brexit become a pathway for other skeptical EU nations? Would Brexit rocket exclusive forms of nationalisms? Would the whole of united Europe collapse, on the long run, as a result of Brexit as the League of Nations had become toothless after the US Senate had vetoed the Pact of League of Nations? But what effect is going to have Brexit on Scandinavian countries which historically have been closely connected to Britain? How is it reflected in Scandinavian intellectual milieus, in mass-media, in public discourses? What about the Baltic states which received a strong support from Britain in key moments of their history, for instance when Royal Navy came at the rescue of Estonian and Latvian independence following World War I or in the process of re-enactment of Baltic sovereignty after the collapse of the Soviet Union?

    Mediating conflicts between groups with different worldviews

    Approaches and methods

    In recent decades, more and more violent conflicts have a religious or cultural dimension and take place between groups adhering to different religious or secular visions of the state and society. When groups with different worldviews are required to share the same (social, political, virtual, economic, or military) space, this can lead to tensions and give rise to violence—ranging from offensive language to physical attacks and open warfare.

    Resistance to Order and Authority (ROAR)

    CEU/ELTE/Masaryk PhD Conference 2020

    Religion has served to legitimize political power, but it has also been a basis for resistance against order and authority. Be it the Maccabean revolt, Gandhi's practice of non-violence resistance, contemporary neo-pagan religions, or the counter-system movements portrayed by Mark Juergensmeyer in his 2001 book Terror in the Mind of God, religious beliefs have motivated people to reject social order that they deem as unjust, and possibly rise against it. Even in today’s secularized societies, religion has served as the ground for social movements and manifestations addressing pressing socioeconomic threats such as climate change, social inequality, authoritarian governments and minority discrimination. These observations have encouraged new trends in scholarly debate, especially regarding the emergence of alternative religious ideas and rituals in modern societies.  old and new religious convictions legitimized various resistance movements among different communities? Which causes have influenced violent mobilizations against established social order, non-violent struggle, or the establishment of alternative community frameworks? What can these movements and ideas tell us about the role that religion plays today both in secularized and non-secularized societies?

    Revolutionary cosmopolitanism. Transnational migration and political activism, 1815-1848

    The period 1815-1848 not only was characterized by several waves of revolution in Europe, the Atlantic world and beyond, but also by large movements of migration. Although these migrations can often be associated with political uprisings, only few connections have been made between the study of migration history and history of political thought and practices. This one-day conference aims to bring together these different strands of research and to discuss how experiences of migration and cross-boundary mobility contributed to the formation of common revolutionary cultures in the period 1815-1848.

    Thinking about violence in Africa through women’s experiences: vulnerability & subversion

    Penser la violence en Afrique au travers de l’expérience des femmes: vulnérabilité et subversion

    Les deux journées du « Junges Forum » seront consacrées à penser la violence en Afrique au travers de l’expérience des femmes dans une perspective interdisciplinaire. L’objet ici n’est pas de se concentrer sur l’expérience passive, pour peu qu’elle existe, de la violence. Il s’agit bien ici de s’intéresser à la manière de l’appréhender, de la retranscrire, de la faire sienne et de la renverser, qu’elle soit symbolique, sociale, domestique, épistémique, politique ou sexuelle. Le « Junges Forum » vise à accueillir des communications de jeunes chercheur.euse.s (doctorant.e.s et postdoctorant.e.s) pour permettre des échanges interdisciplinaires et discussions ouvertes sur la thématique. Les communications de différents champs de la recherche scientifique (anthropologie, études cinématographiques, études sur le genre, psychologie, sciences historiques, sciences littéraires, sociologie, etc.) devront exclusivement se concentrées sur les aires géographiques du continent africain.

    The Becoming of Congo: Epistemologies, Practices, and Imaginaries

    V International Congo Research Network Congress (15-16 September 2020)

    The conference aims to bring together junior and senior scholars across the humanities and social sciences, sharing a common interest in the DRC. It specifically aims to provide space for transdisciplinary and comparative analyses and reflections, within and beyond Congolese Studies. This edition of the Congo Research network (CRN) focuses on the concept of “becoming”: the becoming of research on/around the Congo (new paths and new relations between "knowledges/epistemologies" and agents—academics, artists, writers, cultural operators, journalists and bloggers, activists and others); the becoming of Congolese culture (new places of creation and exhibition, new ways of sharing/transmitting knowledge and cultural practices); the becoming of land and questions of mobility, not only in the Congo, but also in Africa and the world (climate change and social justice).

    Artistic Activism in India (History, Practice, Paradigm and Circulation)

    “Artivism” encompasses artistic actions, which tackle social and political issues, reviving agitational practises defined in resistance to the planetary ideological hegemony they refer to as neoliberalism. This resurgent awareness of the political nature of artistic creation questions consensual discourses on the neutrality of art and aesthetics, often confined in their "autonomy" and impervious to the disorders of the world. Within artistic activism a dialectic between two entities, traditionally perceived as being of a different nature, is played out: on the one hand the field of art (too often defined as autonomous, with no other functionality than its own) and on the other hand in the field of politics and social activities on the other hand (thought out as a praxis of the exercise of the power in an organized society). The central question posed by artistic activism could be stated in this way: How can we evaluate the capacity of art (visual arts, performing arts, literature, theatre, dance, video art, cinema, etc.) to function as social and political protest?

    Capturing Europe in Digital Sources: New Approaches for European Integration History?

    Call for Papers 15th History of European Integration Research Society (HEIRS)

    Over the last decades, calls to “provincialise” the historiography of Europe have shaped the historiographical debate and led to new perspectives on the history of European integration (Patel 2018, François and Serrier, 2017). Digital approaches might offer historians the opportunity to do just that. With the digitisation of historical materials, such as the press, historians may broaden the scope of the classical source corpus in European historiography, by relying for instance on keyword search and collecting an ample range of press articles dealing with Europe, as Florian Greiner did in 2014. To provide another example, Frédéric Clavert in his project UNSURE resorted to digitally born archives of newsgroups to analyse the discussions on Europe in the 1990s-2000s, to shed light on the opposition to the European integration outside of mass media. These examples display significant efforts to meet the challenges of European integration historiography and led us to invite young researchers and PhD students to share their research using digitised/digital sources or digital tools on European integration history: How can the digitisation of sources and digital tools help face the challenge of ‘capturing Europe’?
